Hi Andrew,

Sorry for being slow to get back to this.

I don't see a good way to change the defaults to read from /usr/share
unconditionally.  QSettings would need a function to append a fallback
directory in code.  Without that, XDG_CONFIG_DIRS *is* the way.
(Without having the panel copy a default config file into place or
something.)  I'm not sure this is worth the effort.

I hadn't seen this bit of history.  Reverting sounds good to me.

Agreed.  Thanks for your work.

Cheers,
